Up today at GameCritics.com, Jack Dunn reviews Constance, an indie metroidvania with a colorful art style and a focus on mental health. In a year when its genre was chock-full, this one stands out.

The war on the U.S. Constitution has begun.

When political pressure—foreign or domestic—dictates what American media can say, the First Amendment is under attack.

CBS appears to be the first major casualty

Watch. This is how free speech erodes.

Also up today at GameCritics.com, Thom Stone covers Mole maiden -- a self-titled "bossavania" that doesn't quite offer enough newness to warrant the creation of a subgenre.

Up today at GameCritics.com, Adam Sharman covers The Seance of Blake Manor by @spookydoorway.bsky.social and finds a marvelous adventure that includes mystery, suspense and a great dose of quality-of-life! It's a must-play!

Folks, need an assist -- looking for the title of a horror movie.

I feel like it was maybe '90s, on an oil rig or somesuch. Some kind of virus fusing people with machines, or themes along those lines.

Details are fuzzy but I can sorta see it in my head... Any guesses as to what it is?

Today at GameCritics.com, Darren Forman checks out the latest iteration of the long-running franchise, Everybody's Golf: Hot Shots. It may be the newest version, but it strangely lags behind the ancient Vita entry...

AI is deeply flawed and more to the point in NO WAY PREDESTINED. So many of these letters present it like, “welp, we let it out of the cage, now we just have to love the monster as it eats us.” We don’t. We can hunt the beast and kick it back into its crate and then sink it beneath the waves.

This current Steam Winter sale is one of our best in the last 10 years. 12k units sold and climbing. A huge relief since we just went through an expensive move. On behalf of myself and all the WEG devs, thank you all. 🙏☺️

Today at GameCritics.com, Eugene Sax reviews Death Howl and finds an extremely compelling (and challenging) tactical deckbuilder experience that takes players down a path of sadness.

Up today at GameCritics.com, @cynicalceezy.bsky.social takes a look at Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader on the Switch 2.

It's an incredible game, but it seems like maybe it's a bit too much for the Switch 2 to handle...

I've been working on a game pitch and story dear to me, "ENGINE ANGEL", with the team at Ivy Road!

We're still seeking funding, but in the meantime I wanted everyone to still be able to share the work they've done. I'll be sharing more as well as reposting any of the team's posts so stay tuned!

We all know he's guilty AF and we saw this redaction coming a mile away, so who cares if the Epstein files are unreadable?

We've already seen enough to impeach him a dozen times over *without* the files, and there have been zero consequences for any of it.

The files weren't gonna do it.

Also up at GameCritics.com today, Jason Ricardo covers SiegeCaster, an homage to old-old-school tower defense (sort of!) that tries to pay homage without taking modern advances into account.

Up today at GameCritics.com, CJ Salcedo covers Pac-Man World 2: Re-Pac, and finds that while it may not rewrite the rules of 3D platformers, it does fully understand them and executes correctly.

Just watched an episode of Centurions from the '80s where the hero fakes an injury and gets cyborg prosthetics to join a hobo fight club so that he can meet the world's richest woman so that they can go shoot polar bears at the North Pole before making out on her rug.

The '80s were... Not dull.
